What TV Channels Can I Watch On My PC For Free?

By Marcelo Quijanios

A growing number of people are using their computer to watch free TV. They are fed up with the arrogance of the cable companies and their high monthly rates. You have to pay $80 and get only access to 50 up to 100 channels. And you may have never realised it before, but you even have to pay for TellSell, commercials and infomercials.

The cable companies act still like a dinosaur and are not aware that one day they could become extinct. They still have no clue what the impact of watching TV channels on the computer will do with their business. You can make the comparison with the big telecommunication companies who in the beginning laughed about using the internet for phone calls, known as VoIP. In this article I will talk about several options that are available when you want to join the growing number of people that watch TV on pc for free.

Where To Find The Best Sites to Watch TV on Your Computer? When you make up tomorrow the cable companies will be still around. It will take at least five years before the internet has taken a fair share of the market. The reasons are that still many people are unaware of the possibility to watch free TV on the internet. And those who do know, are hesitant because of fears about availability and quality. Indeed one of the things you have to consider is that you need an excellent broadband connection when you decide to make the switch to watch TV on pc.

You can divide the free offers on the internet in two groups. One group has a huge content on offer, while the other group has high quality streaming video. The last one is more important. Your screen will not freeze up every five minutes as the computer is downloading more data.

Sports Channels If you are big sports fan, then you don't want to miss out on MyP2P.eu. They offer probably the most sport channels on the internet. But when you also want live TV channels, then you are at the wrong address. Instead they have a great section called "Live Sports". Also you can choose your favourite sport and enjoy all the live games that are broadcasted. Because it is a global site, you can which even for the US uncommon sports. Their main categories are American football, baseball, basketball, cricket, cycling, football/soccer, golf, ice hockey, motor sports, rugby and tennis. In the section other sports you can find horse racing, snooker, volleyball, badminton, biathlon and squash. This is determined by the tournaments of that particular period.

Popular TV Programs and Channels Many people fear when they switch to watching on the computer, that they have to miss some of their favourite channels or programs. But there is no need to worry. When you go to TVChannelsFree.com, you will find more then 3600 channels from over 60 countries around the world. But first get the required plug-ins for your computer. Depending on your software on your computer, choose between RealPlayer, Windows Media Player or SopCast. When you use Microsoft it is likely that you have already a version of media player.

On the website of Inner-Live.com you can find all your favourite TV-shows. Also it offers a chat room where you can talk with other folks about the program you are watching. News Channels When it is unacceptable for you to miss anything that is happening in the world, then the website LiveStation.com could be your saviour. From all around the world they offer high quality news by the major stations. You can choose between CNN, CNBC, Euronews, NASA TV, BBC World News, Al Jazeera, Euronews and many more. It is even possible to follow them on your iPhone.

One Time Pay Websites There are several companies that charge you a one time fee for sending you the software you need to view their offer. It is usually around $50. The disadvantage is of course that you have a pay a few bucks. But the advantage is that you can always contact the helpdesk when you are facing problems, either during setup or later when you are watching. The other thing I noticed, that when I Google for 'watch tv on pc', that my Norton safe site checker indicates that some websites are not safe. Norton reports that the site is infected by a virus or even worse has key logging software installed. When your anti-virus software doesn't offer this feature, then you really have to be on the alert if you prefer free access.

I still am still a 'plug and play' guy, and therefore I chose for a paid service. It is always nice that you can contact someone when things are not working as they should. It is up to you to decide what is more important, saving money and being annoyed when it doesn't operate as expected, or pay a few dollars and have at all times someone available who can help you out. - 29967
